Reg R/3 ECC6.0 as a source system to BI 7.0

Hi,
Hi All,
In my proj we r going to use same client for both R/3 & BW(BI7.0).
In this case how to establish connection bn R/3 & BW(BI7.0).
Our landscape: one server for both QED & DEV with different clents and one server for Production. we r go to use seperate prod servers for BW & R/3.
Pls help me out.
Thanks,

Will BW works with ECC6.0 as source system?

Hi
My client had a doubt whether can we ECC6.0 as a Source system for BW 3.1. Since he is going for tech upgrade his SAP R/3 System into ECC6.0. But he do not want to go for BW upgrade now, so he want to continue with existing BW system.
Thanks in Advance

hi
We are moving to ECC6, with bw 3.1
Did it work for you ?, Was it hard to implement (the BW part) ?
Thanks

How to Change Source system type of ECC6.0 in BW system

Hi BW Experter,
 I connected ECC6.0 PRD system with BI7.0 PRD system , the connection is successful,
but the source system type of ECC6.0 PRD is not collect . The ECC6.0 PRD is as a
BW system type in the source system list of bw system .
 I found that Tcode RSA1 has ever been run in PRD ECC6.0 , So I did a connection testing of
ECC6.0 QA with BI7.0 PRD .
 Step 1. Connect ECC6.0 QA with BI7.0 PRD , ECC6.0 QA was as SAP system type in source system list of bw system .
 Step 2. Run tcode RSA1 in QA ECC6.0
 Step 3. Delete connection of ECC6.0 QA with BI7.0 PRD .
 Step 4. Connect ECC6.0 QA with BI7.0 PRD again , ECC6.0 QA was as SAP system type in source system list of bw system .
 I want to know how to change ECC6.0 PRD source system type to SAP .
If it can't been change to SAP ,Is there any impact when ECC6.0 PRD is as bw system type in source system .
Thank you for your help .

I got the soulution from note: 1087980 - ECC Source systems appearing in BI folder
Summary
Symptom
Source system connection for an ECC system appears in the BI folder, rather than in SAP folder, as expected.
Other terms
Wrong folder,RSA1, RSBASIDOC, RSAP_BIW_DISCONNECT
Reason and Prerequisites
Transaction RSA1 was inadvertently used on an ECC system , thereby creating a 'Myself' source system entry in RSBASIDOC table
Solution
This is just a display issue and does not cause any operational issues. Therefore, it need not be corrected, especially if the ECC system in question is used as a BI system as well.
If it is absolutely required that the ECC source system appear in the correct folder, perform the following steps.
1. Check that an entry with SRCTYPE 'M' exists in table RSBASIDOC table of ECC source system.
2. Note the values for SLOGSYS and RLOGSYS. It should be same.
3. Run the function module RSAP_BIW_DISCONNECT in the ECC system.
 NOTE: Never run that function module in a BI system!
4. Enter the following values :
I_BIW_LOGSYS <RLOGSYS> as noted in step 2
I_OLTP_LOGSYS <SLOGSYS> as noted in step 2
I_FORCE_DELETE <X>
< DO NOT ENTER ANY VALUE IN THE FIELD - RFC target sys !!!!! >
5. Go to RSA1-> Source systems in the BI system connected to the ECC system.
6. Select the ECC source system and select RESTORE in the right click menu.
Now the ECC system should appear in the SAP folder.
If running RSAP_BIW_DISCONNECT results in an error like OTHER_ERROR, please check if a valid RFC connection exists in transaction sm59.
If the myself source system connection cannot be deleted in any case, log a service marketplace message with SAP Support.

Deletion of source system after an upgrade : consequences ?

Hello,
I'm a sap basis guy.
We have a SAP BI 701 sytem mapped to our 4.7 Non Unicode source system.
I have now perfromed the unicode migration and upgrade to ECC6 of the source system on another server.
It means now, that I have two sourtce systems with exactly the same SID, and logical name.
Sicne the BI connexion in RSA1, is based on the logical system name , I have no ther choice than delete the old
source system, and recreate it with the same logical name but different connexion parameters (hosts, ...) and differentversion (
I have talked with the BI team, but thnigs are quite unclear about the consequences of deleting a source system in RSA :
Do all Transformations/ Transfer Rules between DataSources and targets are deleted ?
Does it mean that they have to be manually recreated after the new source system has been recreated ?
Is there any workaround ?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards.

Hello,
If you do not save the source system dependent objects to a transport request before you delete the connection then the objects will be lost , you can avoid this by saving the objects to a transport request and then release the transport before you delete the connection and import it in the new system, the steps in general are below:
RSA1
Transport Connection
Button 'Collection mode' set to 'start manual collection'
Press 'Source system assignment' button (it's the one left of the
'Request BEx' button)
Select the source systems you want to save the transfer rules for
Continue
Button 'Grouping' set to 'Save for system copy'
At the left border click on 'Object Types'
Extend tree 'Source system' LSYS
Double click on 'Select objects'
Select the source systems you want to collect objects for
the source system is now displayed in the right box
Press collecting button ('gather dependent objects')
this may take a while
Right click on the root of the tree and select
Transport all below
Expand the whole tree and check if there isn't an object which is locked
by an other open transport request !!
(the column 'Transport request' has to be empty (BEFORE deleting the corresponding source system
connection!)

Source system connection in IDES ECC6.0 Version

Hi experts,
I have ECC 6.0 in our Company, ECC 6.0 version also have BI integrated with ECC6.0 version.
Now my question is that is it possible to connect r/3 with BI in the same server, we have two application server, if yes Please let me know how to achieve it without changing the logical system name.
because if we change logical system name then it gives a error message that logiacal system name has been changed for this system.
any help in this regard would be apprecicated.

Hi,
One server can have several systems but with different client and with different logical system anem. Now if logical name is same, they source system connection is not possible. Logical system name can be changed in t-code SCC4, but please do consult basis person before doing this as this is bit sensitive.

ECC6.0 upgrade and BW steps for mapping the new ECC6.0 source system

Hello gurus
We are upgrading from R3 4.6C to ECC6.0. We use BW 7.0 SP 18. We will create the new ECC6.0 source system in BW, replicate metadata and everything. The question is how do we copy or reassign the existing objects pointing to our current 4.6c dev system (transfer rules, transformations, infopackages, process chains) to point to the new ECC6.0 dev system ? As a note, we also need to keep the current 4.6c source system objects until go-live o ECC6.0.
What is the common practice in such a case ? I am sure we are not unique...
A prompt response would be appreciated.
Thank you all.

So the plan is to copy dev R3 and upgrade that - then Q r3 copied and upgrade that - then upgrade directly prod R3?
If so - then if it were me - I would firstly prove all this in a sandbox environment where BW dev points at an upgraded sandbox R3 ecc
ie same logical system
Then once that is proved I would organise downtime of BW development for a few months whilst the d-q-p ecc happens
Then when they copy dev r43 to ecc r3 i would then just point BW dev at the new ecc box and go from there (ie clear the deltas - change the logical system name to the new ecc box - replicate meta data - transtru all the datasources - run the process chains nothign to worry about)
However if you cant afford the down time - you may have to have an alternative transport route - ie copy dev BW to a another dev bw box and have an alternative path to production for issues
Then once everything is upgraded redo the changes through d-q-p to get the transports back in line (thats what we did)

Connecting to R/3 source system from BI in ECC6.0

Hi all,
We have installed ECC6.0 system recently with two clients say 500 for R/3 and 600 for BI7.0.
we would like to know how to establish connection between these two clients?from BI7.0 >RSA1>Source Systems-->we do not have any source system assigned here(i.e. SAP folder has nothing under it).
Does anyone has documents on this?please share with me.
Regards,
Murali.

Hi Murali,
Following are the stpes to be performed
1)Before any developments create a user ALEREMOTE through transaction code SU01. This user name is to be created in both the BI system and the R/3 system
Enter the requisite details for the same like address, Logon date, defaults, parameters, roles, profiles, groups, personalization and license data. Remember to assign the SAP_ALL and R_RS_ALL in the profiles
You can create the system-generated password by clicking the wizard button.You can also choose the password of your choice. Its important to note that keep the password same for the user ALEREMOTE common for both the BI and the R/3 system.
2) In the same way create another user BWREMO
3) Define the logical system in BI
Click on SAP reference IMG in SPRO Transaction
For BI 7.0 the procedure is different. It is as follows. Click on SAP Netweaver Business intelligence Links to other source system General connection settings, then click on define logical systems.
For the earlier version BW 3.5 and earlier follow the following steps. Then drop down the BW customizing implementation guide. After that Business Information Warehouse Link to other systems  General connection settings then click on Define logical systems
Click on new entries and enter the logical system name and description
Press the New entries button
Enter the client, city, logical system name, currency, and client role. Select the radio button automatic recording of changes and the rest will remain the same. After that click on save and then back and then save again.
4) Define logical system in SAP R/3 in similar way
5)Go to R/3 connection in BW 3.5 or go to ABAP connection in BI 7.0. Then click create.
6)Now create two RFC destinations for BI, one for direct remote login and the other through the Dialog screen.
7Creating RFC destination for BIW.
a.     Create a RFC destination NB1CLNT500 with the name for logical systems. The other destination would This destination would be used for BW  BW interaction. The same would be for theNB1CLNT500_DIALOG.Now click on connection test and there should not be any error. Now check by clicking the Remote Login button and this will take you to the R/3 system.
8.     Creating RFC destination for Dialog
a.     Create a RFC destination with the name of and NB1CLNT500_DIALOG in BIW with the name for logical systems. This destination would be used for BW  SAP interaction.
9.     The process is finished now.
10.     Now your connectivity is successfully established with the R/3 system.
Please assign points if this helps
Thank you,

R/3 ECC6.0 connection as a source system to BI 7.0 For IDES system

Hi Friends,
I want to create a R/3 source system conenction in IDES
say Example
My IDES server For R/3 ECC 6.0 is XYZ800 and client is 800.
My IDES server For BI 7.0 also XYZ800 and client is 800.
in ECC 6.0 IDES, both BI and R/3 is same server.
In this case how to establish connection bn R/3 ECC 6.0 & BW(BI7.0)
is it possible to create a R/3 source system in IDES for this senario,
then please help me....
I tried to create sourcesystem for different client(812) but it is not accepted
and I searched in SDN postings too, but I can't get my answer.
I have with these Documents already,but still my problem is not solved.
B84_BB_ConfigGuide_EN_DE.doc,BL_Quick_Guide_EN_DE,MySAP BW Cookbook Vol 2.
please help me to solve my problem, sure you can get points.
Thanks
shoukath Ali

Hi prasanna
In your Case no need to create any Source system.
I also got same scenarion and i created connection with BI self Connection.
and i am able to replicate all data Source. in this case R/3 and BW both residing on same client and same server.
Just create BI self connection.
then Restore if it is not giving any error then activate that with Datasource.
Hope it help you.
thanks

Reg Change of Source system in BI Producton

Dear All,
We had a R/3 source system 900 and data was getting loaded from this client to BI 600 client everyday.
Scenario:-
Nowin R/3 the client system is changed from 900 to 950 and 900 client is no longer available.
Problem:-
What are the steps we need to take care of in BI system since the source system (client) has changed
Kindly give your inputs for the same.
Thanks & Regards,
Khan

Hi Khan,
Please follow the below steps:
The requirement is that Clients 900 connection should no longer exists in BW and replaced by clients 950
Below steps would hold good if the datasources of CLNT950 & CLNT900 are identical.
1) Delete CLNT950 in BW (no Datasources of this system is used in BW)
2) run BDLS in BW change CLNT900 to CLNT950
3) Run RSAP_BIW_DISCONNECT in 950 clients ..
4) Restore connection CLNT950
Please remember to make a transport of source system dependent objects(for the original connection) on BW side, else you lose all the transfer rules and stuff. It has to be reimported later after mapping the old and new source system connections in table RSLOGSYSMAP.
Hope it helps,
Thanks,
Amit Kr.

Reg: job termination in source system

hi experts
can anyone tell me solution for this problem after loading infopackage, status of the infopackage is showing is like this "job termination in source system", but i checked with ss it showing job gets cancelled. but i am not assigned any to the data source, so how can eliminate this problem.
regards
harikrishna.N

HI
This can happen when request IDOC is sent source system, but the source system for some reason is not available.
Ensure that source system is available. Change technical status of request to red and delete request from datatarget. Trigger Infopackage again to get data from source system.
Cheers,

Source system error - RFC connection failed

Hi Gurus,
I have installed ECC6 on my PC but not when i am trying to created the DS its not allowing me its saying appl comp hierarchy for source susyem "T90*" doesnt not exist.
so tried going to source system -> done a check for my source system then i got the following errors
Source system "T90*" is inactive
Entry in outbound table not found
Entry in inbound table not found
Basic type does not exist
Check failed for RFC connection T90CLNT090 ; check destination
can any one tell me how to fix this issue?
Regards,

Hi Ravi,
Did you run appication component hierarchy in source system(TX-RSA9)
then activate your data source
then replicate in BW system.
Check here for BW connectivity with source system.

How to create Source Systems in BI or RFC ??

Hi Gurus,
I want to load data from an R/3 connection to BI.
Now i have modified my Datasources in R/3 side.
Question is how i connect R/3 to BI ?
I will have to create RFC Connection , Yes ?
I did following steps , so far, PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO ???
1 To call the RFC we have to create destination.
Means Source system and Target system.
Source System: From where we are calling the RFC i.e. Source system. = R/3
Target System: To where it is calling i.e. Target system. = BI
2. In Source System, create DESTINATION
Goto SM59 to Create a RFC Destination.
3. In SM59 First screen you will get list of RFC Destions
Select R/3 Connections and Click on list(+)symbol it will gives already created Destions, Select R/3 Connections click on Create buttion, it will takes you into another screen to create Destionation.
Name, Password, Logon details.
once it is saved you can test it. Click on Test Connection Button
if it is executed successfully your destinatio is established
NOW WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO IN BI SIDE ????
i went to RSA1 -> source systems
Here i dont see my R/3 in source systems...
please give me step by step instructions.

Error : Modification not possible- while creating source system in BI7

Hi BI Guru's,
We are using BI7 and source system ECC6 ,We are about to move to production, When creating the source system in BI PRD system we getting the Error Modification not possible.we created RFC connection, background user and remote connection works fine.
Is there any body put some light on this issue
thanks in advance,
Regards,
Mohan

Mohan,
Check if your logical systems are in place in SCC4 and also in the transport connection.
Also check if you are connecting to the source system by IP Address or by logical name.
Accordingly you would have to maintain the source system connections.

ECC6 EHP2 (ABAP+Java) system copy using file system copy

Hello Experts,
I have a question around system copy method for a dual stack ECC6 EHP2 system.
We are planning to take full file system backup of this entire ECC6 EHP2 dual stack system and throw it on a completely new hardware with new host name but same SID. We are also planning to do a host renaming in instance profiles and re-building the control files in target system after we finish the file system restore.
Is this method supported in SAP ? Or we strictly have to use SAPinst to do export and import method. In any case our source and target platform is not going to chance as per our scenario.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Harshal

> Thanks for the quick response. Is their any document that says it is not supported ? Because of no proper document that says no to do it, client want's to try it out.
For the ABAP part this is certainly feasible.
The Java part has not only issues with the secure store but also with SID and hostname. The old values are stored in many places in the database and in, depending on the applications installed, many .properties files in the filesystem. So it would be not enough to somehow regenerate the secure store but also change hostname and SID in different places that are not really all documented.
What you are basically looking for is
Note 757692 - Changing the hostname for J2EE Engine 6.40/7.0 installation
with the significant sentence
This note should be applied only when the hostname of a machine
where the j2ee engine was already installed has changed.
It does not replace the SAP official system copy procedure and
MUST NOT be used for copying of an instance to another host and/or with different SID.

Error when creating SAP source-system in RSA1

hi,
we have a new bi-installation. the bi-system is running in the SAME system as our erp 2005-system is running.
the bi-client is 700, our source-system (FI/CO) client is 101. I want to create a source-system in RSA1. at the end i get the following error message:
Name D01MAND700 of client 700 is not the same as the name D01MAND101 of the Warehouse
Message no. R3225
Diagnosis
In order to guarantee error-free communication between the source system and the SAP Business Information Warehouse, the logical system names must be known to both.
The system has established that the selected source system name D01MAND101 in the SAP Business Information Warehouse is not the same as the logical system name D01MAND700.
System Response
Processing has been terminated and all changes undone.
Procedure
Create the source system under the name D01MAND700 in the SAP Business Information Warehouse or change the logical system name for client 700 to D01MAND101 in the ALE customizing screen of the source system.
Note that the logical system name for client 700 may already be being used for other ALE scenarios. If this is the case you are not able to change the name.
i don't understand this error ? is it because the BI-system and the erp-system is the SAME system ?
reg, Martin

mr. kapadia,
there is one entry in table rsbasidoc, and it looks like that:
SLOGSYS D01MAND700
RLOGSYS D01MAND700
OBJSTAT ACT

looks strange, right ? what should i do ? delete this entry ? how can i do this, it is a customizing table, i cant delete it via SE16 ?!?

Caller 09 contains an error message."
I have replicated the Data source and when i try activating it i am getting the following errors
"Inconsistent user object XXXXXXX "
"Error saving DataSource "
"DataSource XXXXX could not be activated"
Help me out

Hi,
Might be some issue in Data Source when you replicating it in BW system.
Check RFC connections between the Source and Target.
Could you mention the error message clearly.
